They cover all the ground I need. Now for the two box, it also is intriguing as living on the east coast of Virginia, there is no shortage of treasure tales from pirates, civil war buried artifacts stolen from southern mansions, buried civil war payrolls and post hole banks galore!!! I for one am excited. All of those things are certainly possible.However a more realistic scenario would be an officers sword or sharps carbine or perhaps a navy colt at or below the four foot level the possibilities for iron relics are endless. And don't let the bones that you should happen to encounter make you queazy just pretend that you are an Archeologist and those poor souls that are long dead won't mind. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can get a WS6 Master Deus 2 setup for less than a Deus 1 or even an Orx, so that's how to fill the lineup cost gap, done. There is no real point of keeping the D1/Orx line alive purely for sub gram gold capability, they are way overpriced if that's the ONLY thing they can do better than the D2, which has them beat handily in every other capability. Time for them to move on and fully embrace the otherwise superior successor they created. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been there done that effectively with a metallic 5ft. spring probe (which can "detect" glass and ash that a deep seeker can't) and a Pulse Induction machine that can detect telltale supply barrel bands. I doubt this will work in hot soil. Probe has no issues with hot dirt. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JCR Posted July 4, 2023 Share Posted July 4, 2023 My Garrett CX II automatically switches to Static All Metal when the Blood Hound 2 Box is connected. No need to Ground Balance. Mineralized ground effect is much reduced. Target ID meter still works to some extent. Will not report nails or smaller than a beer can at shallower depths. Quart size & larger is what it is tuned for. I have a small cast iron Dutch Over at 3 feet. No problem. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kostas 13 Posted July 4, 2023 Share Posted July 4, 2023 The 2box was also made by garrett many years ago on the gti2500 model, something similar seems to have been done by XP. definitely with this project xp is targeting the European buying public. As a deep scan researcher who has tested many probes intended for this type of research, I will tell you that power is not enough to penetrate deep, but the most important factor is the correct balance of the ground... personally i believe that in a real investigation deus with this method will suffer from false signals and will not be reliable, of course time will tell what the real facts are. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No and not many do depending on soil and other environmental conditions.Some just need a good soaking and rinsing others need help from a professional cleaner that has a tumbler bottle cleaning machine and has other very meticulous methods and skills.The bottles pictured look really clean in the photos but under closer examination some still have minor inside stains and outer surface issues such as scratches and minor pings open bubbles and so forth.One even has a professional resin repair to fill a lip chip.
